• Abstract:
  This is the second phase of a plan to identify components of a sustainable and effective alternative transportation system that will provide improved access to, and connections among, the Roosevelt-Vanderbilt National Historic Site units. The goal is to reduce the congestion and pollution resulting from the mass-usage of private vehicles, by replacing them with transit alternatives. In particular, routes are proposed that connect the Vanderbilt Mansion to the Home of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, as well as the Eleanor Roosevelt National Historical Site. A number of design options are presented and recommendations for action are made.
